The day that dC comes home! When I wrote about him being away for 12 days, it seemed like a lifetime! As noted, July is pretty much over now and that in itself feels weird [where is 2012 going?!], but the 12 days have now passed.

I won't say it was super easy, but it wasn't as difficult as I had anticipated. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank the following for that:

Honestly, we couldn't have done it without technology. With the video chat, sometimes it barely felt like he was away! But there were plenty of times when I wish dC was there to share in the moment & he wasn't, so I wouldn't want to do it again. His work needs to really discover video conferencing for themselves.

Another thing that helped was the to do list I set for myself originally. To be honest, I usually fail when I set goals like these for myself so this is actually an epic accomplishment - take a look!

The things I didn't get to were least important but the stuff I actually accomplished I'm so proud of.

#1 thing I'm proud of is this:

My hanging collage of postcards - both sent to me & picked up on vacations. I love love love it & is even better than I had hoped!

And now it's time to celebrate dC's return...

Can't wait for him to see that when he gets home as I won't be there... :)

Umm yes please. When this guy first came into the spotlight, I really gave him no credit. Pretty boy in stupid musical, dating a twat like Vanessa Hudgens. But once 17 Againcame out - amazing. Like where did this guy come from? Legit. Ok, let's go Zac.

Marry

Ryan Gosling

Anyone who knows me could see this coming a mile away. He had me at 'Hello'...or whatever his first line in The Notebook was. He's gorgeous, increda-talented & is a good samaritan! So Ryan, let me know where you wanna have the engagement party...

Honestly, so overrated. I can't say he isn't hot - I can see his appeal but I so not attracted to him. The only talent he has is dancing (though I haven't seen Magic Mike, so maybe stripping too) but guess what, you're supposed to also be able to act. This isn't So You Think You Can Dance. Seriously, people.

I'm really trying to motivate myself to do my nails more often & am hoping these inspire to set aside some time. It doesn't help that 99% of the times I do my nails, I end up ruining at least one nails! :(

I thought the Olympic Stadium was really impressive but it made me a bit sad to find out it's barely used today. Now that Montreal no longer has an MLB or CFL team, there are no sporting events to host. Even though they just going MLS (soccer), the arena is too big so they built a separate stadium. Except when David Beckham brings his Galaxy friends - then they sell out the Olympic Stadium. It's even too big for most concerts. Sad.
